TL;DR Summary

Former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani has been ordered by a judge to immediately pay $148 million in damages to two former Georgia election workers who sued him for defamation. The women accused Giuliani of spreading lies about them in 2020, leading to racist threats and harassment. The judge waived the usual 30-day period for payment, citing concerns that Giuliani may try to conceal his assets. The women have also filed another lawsuit against Giuliani, seeking a permanent ban on him speaking about them and accusing him of intentional infliction of emotional distress.
